Harry has said his “worst fears were confirmed” during his ongoing legal battle with the Home Office

Harry has said his “worst fears were confirmed” during his ongoing legal battle with the Home Office over his right to taxpayer-funded police protection while in the United Kingdom.

In an interview with *The Telegraph*, the Duke said, “People would be shocked by what’s being held back,” and described the legal disclosure as “really sad.” He added, “This one always mattered the most,” acknowledging the case had left him “exhausted” and “overwhelmed.”

It has also been reported that Harry privately believes the original security decision was designed to discourage his and Meghan’s decision to step back from royal life and relocate to the United States—an assertion strongly denied by Buckingham Palace sources. Harry explained, “We were trying to create this happy house,”
